Press the right or left side of the mirror control to fold or
unfold the mirrors. You may notice the mirror glass
adjust as the mirrors fold in; this is normal. The mirror
glass will reposition itself once the mirrors are unfolded.
If the mirrors are accidentally folded/unfolded manually,
they may shake or ¯utter at normal driving speeds
and may not stay in the unfolded position. If this
happens, you will need to reset the mirrors. See
ªResetting the Power Foldaway Mirrorsº next.
Resetting the Power Foldaway Mirrors
You will need to reset the power foldaway mirrors if the
following occurs:
·They are accidentally manually folded/unfolded.
·The mirrors will not stay in the unfolded position.
·The mirrors shake and ¯utter at normal driving
speeds.
To reset the power foldaway mirrors, fold and unfold
then at least three times using the mirror controls. This
will reset them to their normal detent position.
Outside Automatic Dimming Mirror
The driver's outside mirror will adjust for the glare of any
headlamps behind you. This feature is controlled by
the on and off settings on the electrochromic mirror.See ªElectrochromic Mirror Operationº under
Automatic
Dimming Rearview Mirror with OnStarž, Compass
and Temperature Display on page 2-31.
Outside Curb View Assist Mirrors
If your vehicle has the optional memory package
you may have this feature.
The vehicle's mirrors are capable of performing the curb
view assist mirror function. This feature will cause the
passenger's and/or driver's mirror to tilt to a preselected
position when the vehicle is in REVERSE (R). This
feature may be useful in allowing you to view the curb
when you are parallel parking. When the vehicle is
shifted out of REVERSE (R) and a short delay
has occurred, the passenger's and/or driver's mirror will
return to its original position.
To change the preselected tilt position, adjust the
mirrors to the desired position while the vehicle is in
REVERSE (R). When the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE (R), this new position is saved in memory as
the tilt position.
You may be able to enable/disable this feature through
the Driver Information Center. See
Driver Information
Center (DIC) on page 3-46.

Automatic Headlamp System
When it is dark enough outside, your automatic
headlamp system will turn on your headlamps at the
normal brightness along with other lamps such as
the taillamps, sidemarker, parking lamps and the
instrument panel lights. The radio lights will also be dim.
Your vehicle is equipped with a headlamp off delay,
which will keep the headlamps on for a short time after
the ignition is turned off. For more information see
DIC Operation and Displays on page 3-46.
Your vehicle has a light sensor located on the top of the
instrument panel in the defroster grille. Be sure it is
not covered, or the system will be on whenever
the ignition is on.
The system may also turn on your headlamps when
driving through a parking garage, heavy overcast
weather or a tunnel. This is normal.
There is a delay in the transition between the daytime
and nighttime operation of the Daytime Running
Lamps (DRL) and the automatic headlamp systems so
that driving under bridges or bright overhead street
lights does not affect the system. The DRL and
automatic headlamp system will only be affected when
the light sensor sees a change in lighting lasting
longer than the delay.If you start your vehicle in a dark garage, the automatic
headlamp system will come on immediately. Once
you leave the garage, it will take approximately
one minute for the automatic headlamp system to
change to DRL if it is bright enough outside. During that
delay, your instrument panel cluster may not be as
bright as usual. Make sure your instrument panel
brightness control is in the full bright position. See
ªInstrument Panel Brightness Controlº under
Interior
Lamps on page 3-16.
To idle your vehicle with the automatic headlamp
system off, turn the control to the off position.
You may be able to turn off your automatic headlamp
system. See Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) later in this
section for more information.
Your headlamps will also stay on after you exit the
vehicle. You can program this feature using the Driver
Information Center. See
Driver Information Center (DIC)
on page 3-46
As with any vehicle, you should turn on the regular
headlamps if you need them.

lights and return the radio display to full brightness
when the headlamps or parking lamps are on. To turn
on the dome lamps, with the vehicle doors closed,
turn the thumbwheel all the way up.
Exit Lighting
With exit lighting, the interior lamps will come on when
you remove the key from the ignition. The lamps will not
come on if the dome override button is pressed in.
Entry Lighting
Your vehicle is equipped with an illuminated entry
feature.
When a door is opened, the dome lamps and puddle
lamps will come on if the dome override button is in the
out position. If the dome override button is pressed
in, the lamps will not come on.

Driver's Side Temperature Knob
The driver's side knob is used to adjust the temperature
of the air coming through the system on the driver's
side. The temperature can be adjusted even if the
system is turned off. This is possible since outside air
will always ¯ow through the system as the vehicle
is moving forward unless it is set to recirculation mode.
See ªRecirculationº later in this section.
Turn the knob counterclockwise or clockwise to lower or
increase the cabin temperature. The display will show
the temperature setting decreasing or increasing and an
arrow pointing to the driver will be displayed under
and to the left of the temperature setting.
Passenger's Side Temperature Knob
The passenger's side knob can be used to change the
temperature of the air coming through the system
on the passenger's side of the vehicle. The temperature
can be adjusted even if the system is turned off. This
is possible since outside air will always ¯ow through the
system as the vehicle is moving forward unless it is
set to recirculation mode. See ªRecirculationº later in this
section.
Turn the knob counterclockwise or clockwise to lower or
increase the cabin temperature. The display will show
the temperature setting decreasing or increasing and anarrow pointing to the passenger will be displayed under
and to the right of the temperature setting.
The passenger's temperature setting can be set to
match the driver's temperature setting by pressing and
holding the AUTO button for four seconds. Both the
driver and passenger arrows will be displayed.

-(Defog):See ªDefogging and Defrostingº later in
this section.
@(Recirculation):Press this button to limit the
amount of outside air entering your vehicle. The light on
the recirculation button will glow. This is helpful when you
are trying to limit odors entering your vehicle and for
maximum air conditioning performance in hot weather.
Press this button again to allow outside air to enter the
vehicle. The light on the recirculation button will go off.
Pressing this button also cancels the auto recirculation
feature. To resume the auto recirculation function, press
the AUTO button. Each time the vehicle is started, the
system will revert to the auto recirculation function.
If you select recirculation while in defrost, defog or ¯oor,
the light in the button will ¯ash and then go out to let you
know that this is not allowed. This is normal and helps to
prevent fogging.
When the weather is cool or damp, operating the system
in recirculation for extended periods of time may cause
fogging of the vehicle's windows. To clear the fog, select
either defog or front defrost.

·The current driver's set temperature and an arrow
for ®ve seconds
·The current passenger's set temperature setting
and an arrow for ®ve seconds
·The automatic air delivery mode and fan speed
If the driver's and passenger's temperature settings are
the same when AUTO is pressed, the temperature
setting and both arrows will be displayed for ®ve
seconds along with the automatic air delivery mode and
fan speed. After the ®ve second update, the display
will change to show the temperature setting, both arrows
and AUTO.
Air Conditioning
#
(Air Conditioning):Press this button to turn the air
conditioning (A/C) compressor on and off. The
snow¯ake symbol will appear on the display when the
A/C is on.
Pressing this button when the outside temperature is
too cool for air conditioning will make the snow¯ake
symbol ¯ash three times and then turn off to let
you know the air conditioning mode is not available. If
the air conditioning is on and the outside temperature
drops below a temperature which is too cool for air
conditioning to be effective, the snow¯ake symbol will
turn off to let you know the air conditioning mode
has been canceled.
3-23

^(Air Conditioning Off):On some vehicles, when
you turn the air conditioning off, this symbol will appear
on the display. If your vehicle does not have this
symbol, the snow¯ake symbol will turn off to let you
know the air conditioning is off.
When air conditioning is selected or in AUTO mode, the
system will run the air conditioning automatically to cool
and dehumidify the air entering the vehicle. If you select
A/C off while in front defrost, defog or recirculation, the
A/C snow¯ake symbol will turn off, but the A/C
compressor will still run to help prevent fogging.
On hot days, open the windows long enough to let hot
inside air escape. This reduces the time it takes for
your vehicle to cool down. Then keep your windows
closed for the air conditioner to work its best.
On cool, but sunny days while using manual operation
of the automatic system, use bi-level to deliver warm
air to the ¯oor and cooler air to the instrument
panel outlets. To warm or cool the air delivered, turn the
temperature knob to the desired setting.In AUTO mode the system will cool and dehumidify the
air inside the vehicle. Also while in AUTO mode, the
system will maximize its performance by using
recirculation as necessary.
Heating
On cold days when using manual operation of the
automatic system, choose ¯oor mode to deliver air to
the ¯oor outlets. To warm or cool the air delivered, turn
the temperature knob to the desired setting.
If you want to use the automatic mode, press
AUTO and adjust the temperature by turning the
temperature knob.
The heater works best if you keep the windows closed
while using it.
